"Your Majesty, there's no need to rush just yet..."

Wei Zheng began to speak slowly.

"How can I not rush? How can I not rush!"

He was in the Imperial Study, his anger turning into sarcastic laughter.

With just a slight hesitation, he painfully lost a territory of endless universe stars much larger than the Great Tang Dynasty!

That was his only chance to find a way to survive, to oppose those beings in the heavens, and now it was missed.

"I should've been careful, careful, and more careful..." He showed a trace of regret, wearing the dragon robe, pacing back and forth in the room, "Oh, what a great loss, what a great loss indeed!"

Initially, why bother establishing good relations with Immortal Zhenyuan?

He could have simply brazenly developed that land since he was already there.

The other party had no way to deal with him as the Human Emperor, and if he saw it, he should've taken his share with the Immortal Gods above...even if the other party was Immortal Zhenyuan, it would be no exception.

He was just that domineering, who dared to kill a Mortal Emperor?

"Those ancient beings, their bellies full of malice! At the time, I should not have exchanged a single word! Not uttering a sound, just developing the land there, madly harvesting resources! Immortal Zhenyuan, standing beside, whatever he said, how he advised, spitting all sorts of celestial melodies, I should've treated them as mere wind, directly ignoring him...leading the army to immigrate there."

He couldn't help but curse.

As the present Human Emperor, he has been relying on the "Immunity Token" to exploit various advantages over the years.

After all, can face be eaten?

Previously, when he first ascended the throne, he suffered a great loss from being too concerned about his face.

Now he's long entered a shameless mode, as long as his face is thick enough, the present Human Emperor can fight for his kingdom's fortunes, for more luck and prosperity of the Great Tang...

How much is face anyway worth in silver taels?

If not for this, he wouldn't have any leverage even against the celestial beings above.

"Your Majesty, it would be wise to carefully recount the situation in that world; although we've suffered a loss, there may still be a chance to salvage the situation," said Wei Zheng, now completely solemn.

Soon, after understanding the entirety of the incident, the courtiers also became aware of all matters.

Numerous courtiers began to discuss and speculate.

"Your Majesty, if that universe is as it's said, only basic true skills can be used in that world...and the Bo'er Civilization's manifesto states they move at 2 light years per second, I'm afraid they are indeed more formidable than us!"

Du Ruhui, in his scholarly demeanor, began to speak:

"Our Great Tang's true skill technology moves at 0.8 light years per second, and our understanding of basic true skill pales in comparison to theirs; that Bo'er Civilization probably reached a Saint's level of understanding."

In analyzing together, they came to an astonishing conclusion.

In that universe, restricted by only being able to use basic true skills, the Bo'er Civilization's power is equivalent to that of a Saint Level!

Although, they didn't know...

The Celestial Court, the Buddhist sects, those ultimate maps hadn't been unlocked, Saint level combat power was but a joke.

They were themselves the strongest there.

Wei Zheng openly stated, "So speaking, though scarce, under the condition where our power is limited, that universe holds power threatening the True Saint...thus, like our level of civilization, the mortal emperor's level must also exist in plentiful numbers on that land."

Their Chang'an City was just a part of the Human Realm within the Three Realms; mortal emperors, with their luck bestowed by the heavens, could battle figures like True Monarch Erlang, the War God, from heaven, but still would not match real hidden great powers.

"In conclusion, this universe cannot be underestimated!"

"However, according to their testament, it can be understood that era of tombs on that land...they can only grow old solitary within their own territory."

"After all, without using the rules of other celestial daos, and relying solely on basic true skills, space jumps are known to require massive energy; if those civilizations want to leave their domain, they must burn stars to jump..."

Burning stars, in other words, burning suns.

The more powerful a civilization, the more terrifying a lifeform; it requires more energy.

Meaning, if they wanted to reach another land, they would have to turn their prosperous homeland into wasteland....such a method reversed causes and effects.

"Hence, the top civilizations in the universe, like the Bo'er Civilization, are surely a nomadic tribe, continuously igniting stars, leaving wastelands behind, and constantly jumping..."

"Ultimately, they ceased such foolish actions, collapsed, lost their faith, and the convictions of fifty generations were excavated, spawning internal strife through which they took the opportunity to write this testament."

...

In truth, Zhu Zhengwei's perspective was too limited to comprehend the true nature of these testaments.

But those present, the strategists of Chang'an City, easily analyzed the true nature of the monument of high-level civilizations throughout the universe.

"Logically, in that universe, settling down and developing resources locally was the most reasonable course for development...then expanding outward step by step with slow light speed, the resources could have easily offset the civilization's consumption...this trapped at home self-enclosed development, the so-called tomb-building behavior, was the best approach."

The group continued the discussion.

This mob of monsters, super high-grade civilizations, continuously analyzed, unraveling the clues, and were quite terrifying.

If Zhu Zhengwei were present, he would definitely be dumbfounded; could this degree of analysis be achieved with just a bit of information?

However, this real analysis had only just begun.

"As it stands, we are indeed without a solution...because the emperor has made a promise, to leave that so-called Milky Way...and the Celestial Emperor's promises are golden, certainly impossible to retract."

There are predefined causalities from above; other Immortal Gods dare not touch the Human Emperor because of these and are wary of karma, while the Human Emperor must also be mindful of these, cannot speak without due consideration.

"Then, dear courtiers, what do you think is the situation in that universe and with Immortal Zhenyuan?" Emperor Tang couldn't help but ask.

They exchanged glances.

Recalling Immortal Zhenyuan's dialogue, there did seem to be a semblance of outward strength but inner weakness.

After all, as clever as they were, they weren't easily deceived.

"Which means, at that time, Immortal Zhenyuan's true form might have been injured or unable to come in person...could only send a weak to the extreme avatar, at that time, had His Majesty forcefully acted, he absolutely couldn't stop it...that avatar could only stand aside and watch, hence speaking so to His Majesty."

Du Ruhui, in a single statement, pretty much hit the mark, guessing seven or eight-tenths of the truth.

But now saying these is pointless; His Majesty had made a promise.

"Also, when we explored outside, our bodies were actually virtualized? Energy bodies? Like living beings from a different dimensional universe...if the guess is correct..." Wei Zheng's expression suddenly turned solemn, "I believe our Primordial Chaos universe is built upon a higher-dimensional universe above what we see in our vast universe!"

The whole group was in an uproar.

So our dazzling starry Milky Way universe was built on that barren and desolate expanse of the universe, and we are in a different gigantic dimensional world?

"At the same time, Your Majesty, through subtle hints, I have an audacious idea, may I speak freely?" Wei Zheng said.

Emperor Tang was immediately intrigued.

Who was Wei Zheng? He always spoke his mind without reservations, yet even he hesitated now?

"Speak freely," Emperor Tang said;

Wei Zheng remained silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "I boldly speculate that the mysterious universe where Zhenyuanzi currently exists, that universe world is true, while our world...is false!"

"Our universe is fake."

With these words, the Imperial Study was shaken to the core.
